The Vampire Chronicles continue with Anne Rice’s spellbinding new novel, in which the great vampire Marius returns. The golden-haired Marius, true Child of the Millennia, once mentor to The Vampire Lestat, always and forever the conscientious foe of the Evil Doer, reveals in his own intense yet inti-mate voice the secrets of his two-thousand-year existence.Once a proud Senator in Imperial Rome, kidnapped and made a “blood god” by the Druids, Marius becomes the embittered protector of Akasha and Enkil, Queen and King of the vampires, in whom the core of the supernatural race resides.We follow him through his heartbreaking abandonment of the vampire Pandora. Through him we see the fall of pagan Rome to the Emperor Constantine and the horrific sack of the Eternal City itself at the hands of the Visigoths. Bravely, Marius seeks a new civilization in the midst of glittering Constantinople, only to meet with the blood drinker Eudoxia. We see him ultimately returning to his beloved Italy, where after the horrors of the Black Death, he is restored by the beauty of the Renaissance. We see him become a painter living dangerously yet happily among mortals, giving his heart to the great Botticelli, to the bewitching courtesan Bianca, and to the mysterious young apprentice Armand.Moving from Rome to Florence, Venice, and Dresden, and to the English castle of the secret scholarly order of the Talamasca, the novel reaches its dramatic finale in our own time, deep in the jungle where Marius, having told his life story, seeks some measure of justice from the oldest vampires in the world.From the Hardcover edition..

  • Millicent Williamson Goldsmiths College University of London
    WOMEN AND VAMPIRE FICTION: TEXTs, FANDOM AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF IDENTITY Millicent Williamson Goldsmiths College University of London Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD ABSTRACT This thesis examines what vampire fiction and vampire fandom offer to women and uses as a case study the accounts offered by women fans in New Orleans and Britain. Textual approaches to vampire fiction and femininity have largely proposed that just as the woman is punished by being positioned as passive and masochistic in the texts of Dracula, so too is the female viewer or reader of the texts. This thesis argues that such approaches are inadequate because they impose a singular ('Dracularesque') structure of meaning which both underestimates the variety of vampire fiction available and ignores the process of reading that women interested in the vampire figure engage in. It is argued, based on the women vampire fan's own textual interpretations, that the vampire can be read as a figure of pathos who elicits the fans' sympathy because of its predicament. It is further argued that this approach to the vampire appeals to the women because it brings into play a melodramatic structure which resonates with certain problematic experiences of feminine identity that are often suppressed in our culture and thus difficult to articulate. The figure of the vampire offers women fans both a channel for their creativity and a means of rebelling against the imposed norms of femininity. It is a well-rehearsed position in theories of fandom that the activity that fans engage in is a form of rebellion or resistance.

  • Anne Rice Writes Difficult Books, and I Simply Didn't Have
    UG_2013_05 Vampires Don’t Sparkle: Vampires Outside the Romance Genre My fascination with vampires began when I was eleven, and discovered Anne Rice. I was a world-weary almost-teen with a reading ability way beyond standard for my grade level, and I was definitely ready for her. I read The Vampire Lestat first, even though it’s technically the second in the series. It didn’t matter. I was hooked. Anne Rice is a sensual writer and she made vampires sexy. I hadn’t read Dracula yet so I had no idea what literary baggage vampires might carry with them. As far as I was concerned they were beautiful, deadly, occasionally amoral and frequently religious, and totally fascinating. Then Twilight came out, and the world of vampire literature changed forever. At the risk of sounding really hipster, I probably read Twilight before you. I happened to be looking for vampire books just as it arrived, so I snatched it up and read it immediately. I realized almost immediately that it was total crap and didn’t compare in any way to Anne Rice. Sparkly vampires? Seriously? Even Rice, who writes pretty sympathetic undead characters, manages to make them menacing at least half the time. The Cullens just aren’t scary. This was the point where I gave up and read Dracula, which set the canon in 1897 for every vampire book that followed. It’s an important book to read if you like vampires, or horror, or fantasy. I read it and all of a sudden my perception of vampires changed drastically.

  • {PDF} New Tales of the Vampires: Pandora/Vitto Pdf Free Download
    NEW TALES OF THE VAMPIRES: PANDORA/VITTO PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Anne Rice | 656 pages | 01 Jan 2005 | Random House USA Inc | 9780345476869 | English | New York, United States New Tales of the Vampires: Pandora/Vitto PDF Book One gets a bit sick of Rice name dropping ovid on every single page and that is about the extent to which it is historical. One of the things I enjoyed so much about Pandora was all the history woven into the story. The whole storyline was great in my opinion. During the confrontation in Sonoma, when Akasha directly asks Pandora to join with her or die, Pandora merely responds in a quiet, indifferent voice that she can't do what Akasha is asking of her, and stoically accepts the idea of being killed. And, from what I remember about her previous book s I read, Pandora is no exception to the wonders of her writing style. Read it Forward Read it first. I saw how Marius and Pandora were bonded to each other. Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account. One does not have to read all the Vampire chronicles to enjoy and grasp Pandora, as she can be thought of as a type of Prequel to them. You knew nothing of my months of starvation, restraint, wandering. Aug 19, Mark rated it it was ok Shelves: books-read-in Ibraim Roberson and Max Brooks. I loved these books so much and would recommend this to anyone with a stomach for death and a heart for love. Pandora is a patrician from ancient Rome during the time of Augustus.

  • The VAMPIRE ARMAND
    The Vampire Chronicles Volume 6 The VAMPIRE ARMAND Anne Rice 1 Jesus, speaking to Mary Magdalene: Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. JOHN 20:17 2 PART ONE BODY and BLOOD Chapter One They said a child had died in the attic. Her clothes had been discovered in the wall. I wanted to go up there, and to lie down near the wall, and be alone. They'd seen her ghost now and then, the child. But none of these vampires could see spirits, really, at least not the way that I could see them. No matter. It wasn't the company of the child I wanted. It was to be in that place. Nothing more could be gained from lingering near Lestat. I'd come. I'd fulfilled my purpose. I couldn't help him. The sight of his sharply focused and unchanging eyes unnerved me, and I was quiet inside and full of love for those nearest me-my human children, my dark-haired little Benji and my tender willowy Sybelle - but I was not strong enough just yet to take them away. I left the chapel. I didn't even take note of who was there. The whole convent was now the dwelling place of vampires. It was not an unruly place, or a neglected place, but I didn't notice who remained in the chapel when I left.

  • Anne Rice PANDORA
    Anne Rice, criadora do vampiro Lestat, das bruxas Mayfair e dos incríveis mundos em que vivem esses seres sobrenaturais, lança agora Pandora, o primeiro volume de uma nova série de crônicas vampirescas, cujos protagonistas estão ligados ao vampiro novato David Talbot, designado para ser o cronista de seus companheiros mortos-vivos. Em um café de Paris, David se encontra com Pandora. Nossa heroína tem dois mil anos e é uma Filha dos Milênios, a primeira vampira criada pelo grande e poderoso Marius. A intenção de David é convencê-la a narrar a história de sua vida através dos séculos. Relutante a princípio, Pandora acaba cedendo ao convite e se vê presa à narrativa cada vez mais apaixonada e envolvente de sua lenda mesmerizante, que nos transporta no tempo, da Roma Imperial à França do século XVIII e às cidades de Paris e Nova Orleans do século XX. Ela nos faz recuar até sua infância mortal no mundo de César Augusto, um mundo retratado por Ovídio e Petrônio. É nessa época da Roma Imperial que Pandora conhece e se apaixona pelo ainda mortal Marius, um homem belo, carismático e alegre. É dessa Roma que ela se vê obrigada a fugir para não ser assassinada pelos conspiradores que mataram sua família e pretendem dominar a cidade. Nós a acompanhamos em sua viagem para o exótico porto de Antioquia, na Síria, onde acontece o seu reencontro com Marius, já imortal e atormentado por sua natureza vampiresca. É ele quem concede a Pandora o "Dom das Trevas", quando se lançam na fantástica aventura de um casamento conturbado que duraria dois séculos.
